The Story of Soy
Author: Christine M. Du Bois
Publisher: Reaktion Books
ISBN: 1780239653
Category : Cooking
Languages : en
Pages : 372
Book Description
The humble soybean is the world’s most widely grown and most traded oilseed. And though found in everything from veggie burgers to cosmetics, breakfast cereals to plastics, soy is also a poorly understood crop often viewed in extreme terms—either as a superfood or a deadly poison. In this illuminating book, Christine M. Du Bois reveals soy’s hugely significant role in human history as she traces the story of soy from its domestication in ancient Asia to the promise and peril ascribed to it in the twenty-first century. Traveling across the globe and through millennia, The Story of Soy includes a cast of fascinating characters as vast as the soy fields themselves—entities who’ve applauded, experimented with, or despised soy. From Neolithic villagers to Buddhist missionaries, European colonialists, Japanese soldiers, and Nazi strategists; from George Washington Carver to Henry Ford, Monsanto, and Greenpeace; from landless peasants to petroleum refiners, Du Bois explores soy subjects as diverse as its impact on international conflicts, its role in large-scale meat production and disaster relief, its troubling ecological impacts, and the nutritional controversies swirling around soy today. She also describes its genetic modification, the scandals and pirates involved in the international trade in soybeans, and the potential of soy as an intriguing renewable fuel. Featuring compelling historical and contemporary photographs, The Story of Soy is a potent reminder never to underestimate the importance of even the most unprepossesing sprout.

The "Plan A" Diet
Author: Cyd Notter
Publisher: Morgan James Publishing
ISBN: 164279371X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 185
Book Description
“A great blueprint for changing your life . . . This book provides food for the body and for the soul.” —Pamela A. Popper, PhD, ND, author of Food Over Medicine By combining her decades-long study of both nutrition and scripture, Cyd Notter has created The “Plan A” Diet to serve as a message of hope to those who are nutritionally confused, suffer with declining health, or continually flit from one failed diet plan to another. The book provides a simple, achievable answer for permanent weight loss and improved health, as well as useful insights for dealing with resistance to change. Research confirms that plant-based nutrition is more powerful in restoring health than drugs or surgery, and is proven to be the only diet capable of reversing our number one killer: heart disease. Readers ready to take an active role in their health are equipped with a meal plan, tips for evaluating conflicting information, and an optional transition strategy. Prayer and biblical support has also been included to encourage people of faith. By correlating today’s unbiased science with the wisdom of applicable scripture, the book illustrates why God’s first prescribed diet for mankind—His “Plan A” Diet—remains the ideal food to this day.

The Whole Soy Story
Author: Kaayla T. Daniel
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780496808113
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 454
Book Description
Over the past decade, interest in soy foods has increased dramatically. Soy foods have been promoted as a panacea for radiant health, maximum longevity, and disease prevention and reversal. Sales of soy beverages, energy bars and other health foods are experiencing double digit growth and soy ingredients now appear in more than 60 percent of the processed foods in the marketplace. Thus the safety issues surrounding soy food are of particular importance to human health. Scores of studies dating back to the turn of the century have linked soy foods to malnutrition, digestive distress, thyroid dysfunction, immune system breakdown, reproductive disorders and the development of cancer and heart disease. the Whole Soy Story considers these safety issues based upon a thorough review of epidemiological, clinical and laboratory studies pertaining to soybeans and soy foods, and an examination of government documents and reports obtained, in part, through "freedom of information" acts from the United States, British, Swiss and New Zealand governments. the Whole Soy Story is comprised of a two-part contextual essay followed by a PDE in six sections, divided into 23 chapters. the first part of the Contextual Essay reviews choice of topic, methodology and motivation, while the second part looks at the ways that soy foods were perceived and prepared historically, popular perceptions of soy foods today and the hyping of soy foods. Section One of the PDE considers the different forms of soy foods, old-fashioned versus modern processing techniques and the health problems that arise from the use of modern processing methods. Section Two looks at the nutritional quality of soy macronutrients (protein, fat and carbohydrates). Section Three considers the antinutrients and toxins in soybeans, specifically the protease inhibitors, phytates, lectins, saponins and oxalates, in relationship to malnutrition, digestive distress, and disease causation. Section Four evaluates damage from the metals, manganese, fluoride and aluminum. Section Five considers soybean allergens. Section Six examines the endocrine disruption caused by the soy estrogens known as isoflavones and their roles in causing thyroid dysfunction and reproductive disorders.
